7.2.3.8 Reference: Predefined CP/ACLR Standards
When using predefined standards for ACLR measurement, the test parameters for the
channel and adjacent-channel measurements are configured automatically.
You can select a predefined standard via the "CP / ACLR Standard" softkey in the "Ch
Power" menu or the selection list in the "General Settings" tab of the "ACLR Setup"
dialog box (see " Standard " on page 263).

7.2.4 Carrier-to-Noise Measurements
Measures the carrier-to-noise ratio. C/No measurements normalize the ratio to a 1 Hz
bandwidth.

7.2.4.1 About the Measurement
The largest signal in the frequency span is the carrier. It is searched when the C/N or
C/N
0
function is activated and is marked using a fixed reference marker ( "FXD" ).
To determine the noise power, a channel with a defined bandwidth at the defined cen-
ter frequency is analyzed. The power within this channel is integrated to obtain the
noise power level. (If the carrier is within this channel, an extra step is required to
determine the correct noise power level, see below.)
The noise power of the channel is subtracted from the maximum carrier signal level,
and in the case of a C/N
0
measurement, it is referred to a 1 Hz bandwidth.
